I have been hearing for a while that work on Chromium Wayland is “close” but that doesn’t mean it will make it to Brave. Epiphany doesn’t have that problem.ģ - Not Wayland. Unless I am browsing full screen, I need to enable the system titlebar in order to drag browser windows, which, well - see my point above. Epiphany’s latest release is the best I have seen from an integration/aesthetics standpoint.Ģ - I use a 2 in 1 laptop and browse often in tablet mode. It’s on par with other Chromium clones and with Firefox, but still breaks up my desktop experience a bit. I’ve been running the latest nightly and am very pleased with the performance, love that I can use Chrome extensions, and certainly am sold on “Brave Rewards,” so I am using it for now.ġ - From an aesthetic standpoint, it doesn’t integrate that well with Gnome.
I have questioned whether Brave is worth all the effort as well. i just wonder right now if brave is worth it. finally it will be a “community-maintained” flatpak solution. Hx … well, then i do not try it via toolbox and download the zip file. So what approach do you take if your favorite piece of software isn’t exactly Silverblue friendly? I suppose I could install in a toolbox container and put together a script to launch it (called from a desktop file) but not sure what that buys me. I was able to install a binary release of Brave from their github releases into my home directory and hack up a desktop file to launch it, so that is working for now (no updates, plus I may be missing stuff I am not even aware of). I have no interest in running it with -no-sandbox for security reasons. I’ve attempted to work on building out a flatpak for Brave, but don’t know enough at the moment to get around the sandboxing issue with Chromium based browsers. I’m also trying to keep my Silverblue install as “pure” as possible, so am avoiding adding additional repos, including both 3rd party and rpmfusion.
The rpm available for Brave installs to /opt, so currently can’t be overlaid in Silverblue (unless that changed very recently). I just wanted to see what folks are doing with software that currently can’t be installed with either rpm-ostree or flatpak.
